2 plants for large pot

But gardening is a mystery Artjak. Pots high up more exposed. I find things survive,in pots not in the ground and then vice versa

How long before I furtle in my seeds???

Red dahlia, just enough to maintain bushyness.i always look to "double" up density by pruning to pairs of buds if I can.
For me the dwarf hebes are foliage,plants,but if you want the flowers too,prune spent flowers,ASAP,in summer

Mysterious hole appearance in the soil.

Crocosmia

Got to disagree blairs.
I grow them in large pots, splitting yearly, and use them,to fill in gaps in summer
They sure do well in pots for me. ,I used to sell them like that.
And to disagree further.....blairs will beat me up now but he doesn't know where, I live!..........crocosmias thrive for me in the dry.
Crocosmias are the hybrids fom momtbretias which abound in every nook n cranny here in Cornwall....parched and wet sites alike

question about lobelia (the tall variety) and rudbeckia

Red dahlia, it's hard to say.....how,big your plant is, how "alive" it is, etc.....about,splitting right now.
Your soggy clay sounds ok but in future I,would dig up before winter because cold wet ground them would likely cause it to,rot.
Wet soil in summer is fine

How big are these plants? Are they in small pots? It's still early for tomato plants at moment.

What exactly is full sun/part shade?

Posted: 12/04/2013 at 11:41
I wouldnt anticipate issues like that. Not often we can give all our plants the absolute perfect conditions anyway.
